For my first project this time I have used

Dandelions

Is she not just simply georgous

I absolutly adore her

I coloured her up using Distress Ink refils

I paper pierced her skirt and sleeves to match the DP 

Also making a little matching tag.

I cut out a few paper flowers and gave them a little sparkle with some glitter

A die cut Butterfly and my card was good to go

(ohhh there is also a little Tim Holtz die cut corner that I trimmed right down that holds the tag)

Felicity

Happy, Happy Thursday

I have something super special to share with you today

Chatting to Julia the owner of 

JMC Art & Design 

I asked if it would be possible to have a digi stamp for my Granddaughter Felicity.

She replied it would be quite quirky, fine by me

So I sent her a random photo of Felicity and 3 of her favourite loves

Cats she adores cats

Art she loves all forms of crafting

Writing she is at present writing a book which with help is hoping to get published one day

~~oo~~

And then it arrived to say I was gobsmacked would be under estimated

It had Felicity all over it 

The face was definatly her - The hair I always plait her hair before school!!

Even the tee shirt with flowers she owns several like that, cats ears she has those too

It really was as if Julia knew her ~ I promise they have never met!

Another great love of hers is Garden Centers she adores looking at all the lovely plants, she is often helping Grandad weeding and watering and of course has her special own patch at ours, so I wanted to incorporate those as well without making it over fussy.

Julia will be launching her brand new company very, very soon

I am sure there will be oodles and oodles of fun lovliness

I would highly reccomend Commissioned Digis

I was utterly in love and she needed to be turned into something special

After a little thinking I decided on a shadow box something I have not made in a while.

I coloured Felicity with Distress Ink Refils, keeping to colours she normally wears

How ever did Julia know she had cat ears???

I used my trusty BnM's paper to cover ~ This pack was called Grandmas Garden very apt!!

I did a little paper piercing too on her apron and skirt.

Colouring a few scrabble squares to spell out her name

Once finished I cut of more paper flowers /leaves and shaped those to give a lovely 3d dimension

I can't wait till Felicity finishes school and I can show her

I know she is so going love this and want to borrow it for her bedroom
